Main Goal
Aylin Hontas app is a comprehensive platform designed to help women stay motivated on their wellness journey, from fitness and nutrition to inspiration. Its purpose is not just to offer tools but to build a community where users encourage one another toward achieving fitness goals.
Challenge
Aylin Hontas is an influencer who has built a powerful female community dedicated to working on their body transformation. She created her own weight-loss course and needed a user-friendly app where users could follow the program, share their progress, and manage their nutrition.
Solution
Ein-des-ein team brought Aylin's vision to life by developing mobile and web versions entirely from scratch, working on back- and frontend development, UI/UX design, API integration. Additionally, we made an intuitive admin panel so Aylin herself could edit all app sections.

Web App
To ensure users could easily watch workout videos and access essential information anywhere, the app was designed to work equally well on both mobile and desktop platforms.
